He doesn't flip flop any more than Bush, first off. Second off, Kerry's pretty clear on his position on the war. He voted to give Bush the AUTHORITY to go to war if NECESSARY. Bush took it and ran with it. Kerry says he wouldn't have gone to war. That's not a flip flop.

It's a sad day when the position: "I gave the president the authority to go do war if necessary, but I disagree with the way he ultimately did it." is too complicated for the media to comprehend.
However, Democrats shouldn't dwell on this fact. As much as I hate stealing tactics from the GOP, we should have started attacking the media years ago. Now's not the time to start. The only goal that Democrats should have right now, at least when it comes to national rhetoric, is getting Kerry's message and counter-attack out there.
